Kinda works, then stops.

Helped some, but probably works better for people with mild acne. Can be a little itchy and make your skin dry, but if you're like me than it's a small cost.

It does nothing for the scars and drys your skin out alot changing the texure of it after years of use

If you have light to moderate acne,Benzoyl Peroxide may be all you need.I have severe Cystic acne & it doesn't do much for me, but it does really dry out the face which you need to be careful with.

When trying different products, I discovered I am allergic to Benzoyl Peroxide. My skin is very sensitive to it, so I cannot use products with this in it.

Ive been using this on my face to bring down the possibilities of break outs that can lead to MRSA infections. It worked very well for the first month or two and now is starting to lose its battle. Im starting to get more infections again and have had to switch to a different kind of skin care system.
